Sometimes, I just wish people could atleast TRY to know half of my story.
Try living in MY shoes
and you'll not only feel the w.e.i.g.h.t.
of the world on your shoulders, but the empty feeling you get
knowing you're carrying it AlOnE as well.

You'll feel the pressure of trying your HARDEST
to please people.

You'll feel the h.e.a.r.t.b.r.e.a.k.
knowing you failed them.

Step Into My Shoes
and you'll know what it's like...
to only have one person, one SiNgLe person
to go to when you need a brake.

You'll feel the confusement of not UNDERSTANDING
why that has to be the way it is.

You'll feel the disappointment that comes along
with having that one person
be s.o.  f.a.r.  a.w.a.y from you.

That absence will gnaw at you
until you think you've had EnOuGh .

But no, that's merely just the begining of it.

Step Into My Shoes
for a day, and you'll realize...
that the closes people... those who live near you,
even with you, maybe...
are the ones who are truly FuRTHEST away.

They won't understand you.
Not because they can't, but because they simply don't
w.a.n.t  t.o .

You'll take part in the act,
cherish the fact that GOD will be your BEST friend.

He won't judge you.
He won't tell you you're doing everything wrong
even when you are.

He won't disapprove.
SuGaRcOaT things.
Atleast not to your face.

Step Into My Shoes
and you'll know how hard it is.

But then again...
don't walk in MY footsteps
because I walk into w.a.l.l.s .
